成唯識論述記 8.207

8.207

述曰：此依因位，果亦可然，至下當知。今此後師設許無色界第八亦變下界之色，五所如本識，亦定緣種，勿第八俱六箇見分，境不同質故。自證分境許不同緣，緣自見故。今依可爾說有本質，非要爾也，此義應思。同一所緣相似名同，各各變故，何要同質方名同也？又唯識之境取心內境，若待外質方生，良恐理乖唯識，是故前師甚可翫矣。

The Commentary states: This is based on the causal stage; for the fruition stage it may also be so, as will be known below. Now, this latter master grants that even if the eighth consciousness in the formless realm also transforms the form of the lower realm, the five caitasikas, like the root consciousness, must also definitely cognize seeds, lest the six darśanabhāgas simultaneous with the eighth have objects that do not share the same archetype. The cognitive object of the svasaṃvittibhāga is allowed not to share the same object, because it cognizes its own darśanabhāga. Now, saying that there is an archetype is stated on the basis of what is admissible, not that it must necessarily be so; this meaning should be contemplated. As for sharing the same cognitive object, being similar is called identical because each transforms separately; why must they share the same archetype to be called identical? Furthermore, the cognitive object of consciousness-only grasps an internal object of the mind; if it had to depend on an external archetype to arise, it is truly to be feared that this principle would contradict consciousness-only. Therefore, the previous master's view is exceedingly worthy of appreciation.
